Bias adjustment on solid state amplifiers


Why is there no mention of this in manuals, etc, with solid state amps? It seems with tube amps, there's a built in way to do it and/or mention of it in their manuals.

SS bias need not ever (almost ever) be adjusted if no rail caps or output devices are replaced during the normal lifespan of an amplifier, or if there is no trim pot drift/failure.

Once upon a time you would find the bias procedure and values in the owner’s manual but today almost everything comes with a warranty and/or the manufacturer’s lawyers advise "No User Serviceable Parts Inside".
